Newly-inducted College Football Hall of Famer and No.1 overall pick Carson Palmer joins the show to share his perspective on what it took to win a Heisman, become a franchise quarterback, and leading teams deep into the playoffs. He talks about his early days in high school, what he learned about leadership there, his days at USC and the turmoil that occurred when former coach Pete Carroll took over, then talks through his NFL pre-draft process and what it was like being the top overall pick. Plus: why was it so critical that he had to study behind Jon Kitna for a year? Why is it that Kyler Murray, Mac Jones and others can succeed right off the bat? Finally, Carson discusses his philosophies on leadership, determination, and parenting.
